Vitamin D is more important than you think
Most people know and are familiar with vitamins C, A, or E, but did you know that Vitamin D is also very important to your body?
Vitamin D (Calciferol) consists of a group of fat-soluble cecosterols. There are 2 main forms:
🔸️Vitamin D2 (Ergocalciferol) found in plants and yeast. The body cannot synthesize it on its own.
🔸️Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) found in fish oil and egg yolks. And the body can synthesize it in the skin.
Both types of vitamin D remain inactive in the body until they are converted into active forms in the liver and kidneys.
The role of vitamin D
✅️ Helps with the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the intestines.
✅️ Helps use calcium to build bones and teeth.
✅️ Makes bones strong. Helps prevent osteoporosis.
✅️ Stimulates the immune system in the body. Reduce the risk of infection.
✅️ Balancing the immune system, reducing the occurrence of Autoimmune disease.
✅️ Helps with the functioning of certain hormones.
✅️ Helps control blood sugar levels.
✅️ Helps control blood pressure and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
✅️ Reduce the risk of certain types of cancer.
✅️ Stimulates the secretion of Serotonin in the brain. Helps sleep, reduces stress, reduces depression.
Who is at risk of vitamin D deficiency?
❌️ Elderly people (efficiency in vitamin synthesis decreases)
❌️ People with liver disease or kidney disease (the main source of synthesis has problems causing insufficient production)
❌️ People with diabetes
❌️ People who are overweight
❌️ People who rarely expose the sunlight
❌️ People who are vegetarians
Therefore, people who are likely to have low vitamin D or are worried about it should have their blood levels of vitamin D checked. This is an easy, fast and accurate test.
Low vitamin D can be treated by giving vitamin D in the form of a dietary supplement that adjusts the dosage to the individual (Customized supplement) which is either oral or injectable. Depending on the needs of each person which the doctor will choose as appropriate. This makes the treatment more effective compared to buying vitamins to take yourself.
Additionally, you should find time to go out and expose the sunlight for 10-15 minutes a day to stimulate your body to naturally synthesize vitamin D.
